Anything and Everything that is cool, hot, fresh and classic.
Think you’ve got what it takes to be a Lakai shoe designer?
Then show them what you’ve got with the Lakai My Way Colorway Contest.
Entry is easy: On the Lakai site, simply grab a Telford or a Manchester Select design template, and then color them in any way you like. Then, send in your colorway to the Lakai team, and if they like your style, it’ll be turned into a shoe for the Fall ’09 catalog.

Let’s see what you’ve got.
Threadcakes is a site filled with the results of the Loves Threadless Cake Contest.
The premise of the concept was pretty simple: Bake a cake and decorate it to match your favorite Threadless shirt design.
With over 900 cake pics received, the results speak for themselves, and dough masters showed what was possible with a little bit of patience and a lot of inspiration.
Last week I announced the launch of the DidntYouHear.com Facebook Page, and since then, 25 people have already signed up to be fans, which is fantastic, so a big thanks to everyone who joined!
I also announced that I would be picking out one fan at random and giving them a $10 Amazon Gift Card, so thanks to the magic of Excel’s =rand() function, Alice Chang has been selected. Congratulations!
If you haven’t already done so, then check out the Facebook Page and click “Become a Fan”. I’ll be doing exclusive content and contests there just for the Facebook Fans, as well as adding games and more to interact with on the page, so it should be fun.
See you there!
Last Friday, I held a contest for a new description of DidntYouHear.com, and the submissions were fantastic!
Unfortunately, since DYH isn’t exactly pulling in the big bucks yet, I can’t give everyone a prize, and I have to pick a winner.
Thus, I’d like to say congratulations to evilgregg for coming up with the winning description:
“The lazy man’s guide to the coolest stuff on the planet.”
It’s short and sweet, and does a pretty good job of describing exactly what this site is all about. Thanks Gregg!
To everyone else who participated, I’d just like to say thanks for contributing, and I’m sorry I can’t give you all a prize, since you definitely deserve one.

To submit your description, just write it as a comment to this post.
Then, on Sunday, I’ll pick the best one, and that person will win a $10 Amazon Gift Card, as well as my eternal gratitude.
Let’s see what you’ve got!
Mimoco is holding a Mimobot Flickr Schticker Contest, and you could win a special Valentine’s Day Mimobot package by simply sticking print at home Mimobot stickers in creative places around town and then sending them a pic.
What can you do with just one roll?
36 Exposures wants to find out, and has created the 36 Exposures Challenge to put photo and creative skills to the test.
Unlike a digital camera, where you can shoot away and then just pick the ones that you like later, film cameras had an element of choice involved that meant each photo had to serve a purpose; thus, creating “conscious intentionality”.
To bring back that idea, FILE challenged artists to articulate a concept, project, or theme, and then use a camera to photograph the images to accompany it with only one roll of film.
Though the contest deadline has passed, it’s definitely an interesting idea that could serve as inspiration for your own ‘one roll story’, and I’m sure the submissions will be impressive, so bookmark the site and be sure to go back, because you never know what one roll can do.

To see what true Photoshop masters can do with a lot of time and even more motivation, check out the winners of the third round of Crestock’s Photoshop Contest.
The prize was a MacBook Pro, and the source material was rather varied, so the results are simply astounding.
Makes me want to brush up on my lasso skills…
